The Unmarshaler because of the Unmarshal definition, has an issue when recursively unmarshal other structs that implement the Unmarshaler, see #6029 where the "given" destination to Conf.Unmarshal cannot be checked against the Unmarshaler implementation to avoid a deadlock. The Marshaler seem to not have (I did not carefully check) the same problem, but this needs to be confirmed.

Some possible solutions:

  • See yaml.v2 interfaces, they seem to work fine. We may want to switch to that.
  • Ignore this issue, document properly in the Conf.Unmarshal the caveat.

#9750 would remove this caveat from Conf.Unmarshal, solving this.

[config] Deprecate component.UnmarshalConfig (open-telemetry#9750)
779b625 
**Description:**
This PR removes the top level if/else in `component.UnmarshalConfig`,
handling recursive state in the confmap.Conf object instead.
This PR deprecates `component.UnmarshalConfig` in favor of calling
directly `Unmarshal` on the confmap.Conf object.

Fixes open-telemetry#7102
Fixes open-telemetry#7101
